We derive the capacity of the state-dependent half-duplex relay channel without source-destination link. The output of the state-dependent half-duplex relay channel depends on the randomly varying channel states of the source-relay and relay-destination links, which are known causally at all three nodes. For this channel, we prove a converse and show the achievability of the capacity based on a...

Distinct types of relay neurons in the hindbrain process somatosensory or viscerosensory information. How neurons choose between these two fates is unclear. We show here that the homeobox gene Lbx1 is essential for imposing a somatosensory fate on relay neurons in the hindbrain. In Lbx1 mutant mice, viscerosensory relay neurons are specified at the expense of somatosensory relay neurons. Thus L...

Relay stations are usually used to enhance the signal strength for the users near cell boundary, thereby extending the cell coverage. However, transmission through a relay station needs two transmission phases. The first phase is from base station to relay station, and the second one is from relay station to mobile station. Thus, using relay station may decrease system capacity due to two-phase...

We consider the wireless Rayleigh fading relay channel with finite complex input constellations. Assuming global knowledge of the channel state information and perfect synchronization, upper and lower bounds on the achievable rate, for the full-duplex relay, as well as the more practical halfduplex relay (in which the relay cannot transmit and receive simultaneously), are studied. Assuming the ...

Link adaptive relaying (LAR) is one of the most popular techniques which employs soft power scaling approaches at the relay nodes. On the other. Buffer-aided relaying is a new paradigm for wireless cooperative networks. Buffer-Aided Relaying With Adaptive Link Selection – Fixed and Mixed Rate. A wireless relay is a codecadaptive RF receiver with single channel relay. It helps easily deployment ...

An amplify-and-forward (AF) wireless relay network consisting of a one-source-one-destination node pair and cooperative multiple N relay nodes is proposed in three adverse wireless communication environments, i.e., jamming, node geometry, and channel uncertainty. Based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion, the optimal amplifying relay matrix in three adverse wireless environments w...

This paper presents an optimum amplifying relay matrix based on minimum mean square error (MMSE) criteria for the cooperative distributed wireless relay networks under channel uncertainty and total power constraint at the relay nodes. A one-source-one-destination pair node and N relay nodes are considered, which can be extended for a general case. All relays are assumed to exchange their receiv...

Network coding technique increases wireless network communication efficiency. Wireless multihop relay network has been shown to achieve capacity gain over conventional single-hop wireless networks. Hybrid wireless relay networks integrate multihop ad hoc relay and infrastructure base stations to achieve better wireless network performance. Applying the promising network coding technique to hybr...

This paper considers the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) relay channel where multiple antennas are employed by each terminal. Compared to single-input singleoutput (SISO) relay channels, MIMO relay channels introduce additional degrees of freedom that allow for partial cooperation between the transmitter and the relay. A partial cooperation strategy that combines transmit-side message splitting...
